The first male was described in June 2020. These spiders are mostly black with some white pubescence on the sides of the cephalothorax. The longish abdomen has a dark median stripe in the middle of a wide light median band. The legs are reddish-brown with black rings and very short, with the first pair much more robust than the others. The palps of females are yellowish white and the female P. decorus is about long.
